سردار دهقان در ادامه به دستاوردهای در حوزه موشک‌های زمین به زمین اشاره کرد و اظهار داشت: به این نقطه رسیده‌ایم که دقت ثابت موشک‌های با برد بلندمان به حدی بالا رفته که می‌توانیم نقطه‌زنی کنیم. این موضوع در بحث موشک‌های بالستیک، تکنولوژی خیلی بالایی را می‌طلبد زیرا در موشک‌های بالستیک نسبت به برد، موشک‌ها درصدی از خطا را می‌پذیرند.
وی ادامه داد: ما در یک مرحله خطای این موشک‌ها را 20 متر و امروز آن را با 2 متر به نتیجه رسانده‌ایم و انشاءالله خطای آن را به صفر هم خواهیم رساند.

Thousands Iranian missiles are ready to be launched from underground bases once the Iranian leader order to do so
Islamic Republic of Iran has for the first time released the footage showcasing one of its hundreds underground missile bases.
The Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) was permitted to enter one of the missile bases located 500 meters below the ground and shoot the video depicting the base for the first time.
“Iran’s missiles, capable of flying at various ranges, are ready to be launched from underground bases once the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei orders to do so,” IRINN TV quoted the Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Force Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh as saying Oct. 14.
به گزارش خبرنگار دفاعی خبرگزاری فارس، نیروی هوافضای سپاه پاسداران انقلاب اسلامی برای اولین بار اجازه تصویربرداری از تونل های زیرزمینی سپاه که موشک های بالستیک دوربرد در آن نگهداری می شوند را صادر کرد و صداوسیمای جمهوری اسلامی ایران نیز فیلم آن را پخش کرد.
در این تونل های پیچ در پیچ تعداد زیادی از موشک های دوربرد -که در این تصاویر موشک «قدر» است- دیده می شود.
موشک قدر ازجمله موشک های بالستیک و دوربرد سپاه است که در 2 نوع F و H تا کنون ارائه شده که نمونه اول، 2هزار و نمونه دوم 1700 کیلومتر برد دارد.
موشک «سجیل» نیز از دیگر موشک‌های مهم و بالستیک سپاه با برد 2هزار کیلومتر است.
البته سردار حاجی زاده در خلال این بازدید گفته است که موشک های دوربرد نسل جدید سپاه از سپاه آینده جایگزین نسل های قبلی خواهد شد.
وی همچنین گفته است که نیروی هوافضای سپاه در کمتر شهری هست که ایگاه موشکی نداشته باشد.
بنا بر آنچه اعلام شده، برخی از این تونل ها در اعماق 500 متری در زیر کوههای بلند حفر شده‌اند.
فرمانده نیروی هوافضای سپاه:
موشک‌های ایران آماده پرتاب ومنتظر دستور فرمانده کل‌قوا هستیم
سردار حاجی زاده گفت: پایگاه‌های زیرزمینی موشک‌های دوربرد جمهوری اسلامی ایران در همه استان‌ها و شهرهای این مرز و بوم مستقر و آماده، در عمق 500 متر زیر کوههای بلند قرار دارد.
سردار سرتیپ پاسدار امیرعلی حاجی
زاده فرمانده نیروی هوافضای سپاه پاسداران انقلاب اسلامی که برای نخستین بار فقط به رسانه ملی اجازه تصویربرداری از یکی از پایگاه‌های موشکی در دل کوه را داد اظهارداشت: موشک‌ها در بردهای مختلف در همه پایگاه‌ها بر روی پرتابگر (لانچر) سوار، آماده پرتاب و دست‌ها بر روی ماشه است و فقط منتظر دستور فرمانده معظم کل قوا هستیم.
وی گفت: در مقابل جدید‌ترین و پیشرفته ترین نسل ماهواره‌ها و تجهیزات جاسوسی و تهاجمی دشمنان انقلاب اسلامی، کوچکترین نگرانی نداریم.
حاجی زاده با اشاره به طراحی و ساخت انواع موشک‌های دوربرد، میان برد و کوتاه برد توسط متخصصان ایران اسلامی در وزارت دفاع و سپاه پاسداران انقلاب اسلامی تصریح کرد: این نمونه‌ای از انبوه پایگاه‌های موشکی کشور می‌باشد و از سال آینده نسل جدید و پیشرفته موشک‌های دوربرد سوخت مایع و جامد جایگزین تولیدات فعلی خواهد شد.
وی گفت: آنها که دل خوش به گزینه‌های روی میز خود هستند، تنها نگاهی به گزینه‌های زیر میز سپاهیان اسلام بیاندازند.
فرمانده نیروی هوافضای سپاه افزود: توانایی و اقتدار ما، مانند کوه یخی است که بر آب شناور و تنها گوشه‌ای کوچک از آن روی آب عیان است.
سردار حاجی زاده تأکید کرد: به ملت ایران قول می‌دهم که کوچکترین تهدید و ناامنی از بیرون مرزها متوجه کشور نخواهد بود و مسئولان باید با قدرت تمام مقابل نفوذ دشمنان بایستند و هیچ سستی از خود نشان ندهند.
وی گفت: این عظمت و اقتدار موشکی که گوشه‌ای از آن را امروز جهان به چشم دید شرط لازم برای اقتدار کشور است، اما شرط کافی آن وحدت، یکدلی، ایستادگی و استکبارستیزی مردم و مسئولان است که می‌تواند تضمین کننده ثبات و امنیت کشور باشد.
فرمانده نیروی هوافضای سپاه با بیان اینکه جمهوری اسلامی ایران در میان کشورهای ناامن از ثبات کامل برخوردار است گفت: این نتیجه تلاش شبانه روزی همه نیروی مسلح از سپاه، بسیج، ارتش و نیروی انتظامی است و ملت ایران مطمئن باشد دشمن هیچ کاری از پیش نمی‌برد.
وی تأکید کرد: ایران آغاز کننده هیچ جنگی نیست، اما اگر اشتباهی از بیگانه سربزند، پایگاه‌های موشکی از اعماق زمین مانند آتشفشان فوران می‌کند و این برای دشمن خانمان سوز است.
فرمانده نیروی هوافضای سپاه پاسداران انقلاب اسلامی در پایان از برگزاری رزمایش گسترده در آینده‌ای نزدیک خبر داد.

Hello there
I'm here! I am a new user but old visitor! I have been visiting this forum for several month but finally I decided to sign up and trolling!( kidding, don't ban me!)
and my English sucks! Get used to it!!

google translation is good enough. I just did it and it conveys the message! Anyway the whole long text basically says a new generation of solid-liquid fueled missile will hit the super markets next year! You can lease one at rate of 0.9% if bring it back unscratched! otherwise buy one if you want to explode it! Saudi's get it free on request providing the GPS address and USA Guardian consent or UK parental consent!.

Unlike its predecessors, the new model is equipped with a re-entry vehicle which integrates a guidance system that controls four aerodynamic surfaces for endo-atmospheric flight, and thrusters which can adjust the vehicle’s
In order to gain higher precision, EMAD likely integrates inertial and satellite navigation systems with aerodynamic and propulsion control to guide the re-entry vehicle to its target. Potentially, with these capabilities also enable the reentry vehicle to dodge interceptors, posing a new challenge for missile defenses

Emad: Iran’s New Ballistic Missile Amid The Nuclear Deal – Analysis
By Debalina Ghoshal*
Iran recently test-fired the ‘Emad’, a precision-guided medium-range surface-to-surface ballistic missile. The missile has a range of 1700 kms and a payload capacity of 750kgs. Any missile above a 500 kg payload is considered nuclear capable. Emad is liquid-fuelled but with improved accuracy and maneuverable re-entry vehicles for evading enemy defence systems. This improved accuracy is extremely important if Iran is to deliver a conventional payload. The missile is also reported to carry thrusters for course correction. Reports suggest that this missile is an improved version of the liquid-fuelled Shahab missiles.
The maneuverability is achieved by steering warheads that can perform last minute maneuvering even at the terminal phase. According to Iranian Defence Minister Hossein Dehghan, Emad is Iran’s first ever missile that can be guided and controlled until the missile hits the target. The missile’s survivability is enhanced by road mobility with the help of the Transporter Erector Launcher (TELs).
There have been reports that the Iranian Parliament has approved the nuclear deal with the US and that the deal has also been approved of by the Guardian Council of the Constitution. Ever since the deal was finalised in July 2015, Iranian hardliners have been apprehensive of the conventional arms embargo imposed on Iran – which also includes an embargo on the development of ballistic missiles.
One of the probable reasons why the missile was test-fired just prior to the approval of the nuclear deal was probably to prove a point that under no circumstance can the nuclear deal hinder Iran’s progress with its ballistic missile program. This is also clearly evident from Dehghan’s statement where he said, “We don’t ask anyone’s permission to enhance our defence power or missile capability and will firmly pursue our defence plans, particularly in the field of missile…Emad is one of the outstanding examples of this.”
Despite UNSC sanctions on the country since 2003, Iran has already progressed with its ballistic missile development program and its cruise missile development program. Earlier this year, Iran test-fired the Soumar, a sophisticated long-range cruise missile, while the nuclear negotiation process was ongoing. Both missiles are expected to enter service by 2016.
Furthermore, this year, Iran unveiled the extended range Fateh missiles that now have a range of 500kms. However, while Iran’s missile capabilities could put several of its adversaries at threat, Iran claims that its missile development is meant for its defence and is not aimed at any specific country. According to Dehghan, the missile would only add to peace and strategic stability in the region and also enables the country to display its technological prowess. Iran is also concentrating on solid-propelled ballistic missiles with a 2500km range, called the Sejjil missiles. Last year, Iran had also test-fired the Barani ballistic missiles which are capable of being fitted with Multiple Re-entry Vehicles.
Therefore, Iran is not only making progress with its missile systems but these missiles could be capable of evading enemy missile defence system. The ability of the missile to evade the ballistic missile defence systems of its adversaries could put the US’ European Phased Adaptive Approach (EPAA) system at threat. The US under the EPAA has decided to field its missile defence system and related components in NATO countries to be able to counter the Iranian ballistic missile threat.
While the new Iranian ballistic missile is a liquid fuel propelled missile – which is technically hazardous to prepare – many other states such as Russia and China have also concentrated on liquid-fuelled intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM).
This could be because in comparison to the solid-fuelled missiles, the liquid-fuelled missiles have a higher launch-weight to throw-weight ratio, which provides the missile with a longer range. This could precisely be a reason why Iran could, in future, concentrate on liquid-fuelled missiles for its ICBMs, should it develop the same.
However, this week’s missile test by Iran will certainly draw international criticism from Israel and also from the US. While many analysts could suggest including the issue of ballistic missiles into the nuclear deal, it is only advantageous to not to include the same in the deal. The nuclear deal does not contain any restrictions for Iran on the development of ballistic missiles per se. It is only the UNSC that imposes an embargo on Iran’s conventional weaponry development. Therefore, such missile tests should not hinder the progress of the nuclear deal that has been much lauded by the international community and truly upholds the essence of the Non-Proliferation Treaty. If Iran’s ballistic missile development program is to be checked, there should be separate regional framework to ban missile development in the West Asian region.

Iran tested a new medium-range ballistic missile last month in a breach of two U.N. Security Council resolutions, two U.S. officials said on Monday.
The officials, both speaking on condition of anonymity, said the test was held on Nov. 21. One of them said the missile traveled within Iranian territory.
A Western diplomatic source said last week on condition of anonymity that the test was held near Chabahar, a port city near Iran's border with Pakistan. He said it was a liquid-fueled missile with a 1,900 km (1,180 mile) range and was capable of carrying a nuclear warhead.
All ballistic missile tests by Iran are banned under a 2010 Security Council resolution that remains valid until a nuclear deal between Iran and six world powers is implemented.
Under that deal, reached on July 14, most sanctions on Iran will be lifted in exchange for curbs on its nuclear program. According to a July 20 resolution endorsing that deal, Iran is still "called upon" to refrain from work on ballistic missiles designed to deliver nuclear weapons for up to eight years.
In October, the United States, Britain, France and Germany called for the Security Council's Iran sanctions committee to take action over a missile test by Tehran that month that they said violated U.N. sanctions. So far, no action has been taken by the committee.
Several Security Council diplomats said on Monday they had received no official notification of a new alleged violation of the U.N. missile sanctions against Iran since the October notification. The diplomats spoke on condition of anonymity.
